>>Netscape used to be my preferred browser but they haven't kept up with even the basic advances in html programming, let alone
Java scripts and applets, and therefore it is now very frustrating because a web publisher has to work with one hand tied behind
their back in order to support this soon to be defunct browser (unless they get their s@#t together soon).

The above browser versions have been released for over a year and therefore tested, thus there is no reason that people shouldn't
take it upon themselves to update their browser, at least annually. Heck, they're free! If your internet provider doesn't allow you to
upgrade...complain loudly or change services! While our sight is very basic with only a very few bells and whistles installed there is so
much new and cool stuff on the net these days and if you don't have the latest browser technology and you have your Java capability
disabled....you're really missing out! Just my 2 cents.>>

Yeah, but.... For those of us in the Unix world who don't necessarily
manage our own machines, loading IE is a non issue. I'm not about
to bring up some crummy Windoze emulator to run IE when I have a
direct route through Netscape. It also doesn't help that our IS
dept. has standardized on Netscape mail as the Unix mail of choice.
I don't have root on my system so loading alternate viewers isn't
gonna happen.

Please realize that not everybody plays in the PC world.

Just venting.
